Hi Joe -

I did this several months ago, so I am afriad it is not all fresh in my brain, 
but the steps were something quite like the following:

 - Insert your working boot floppy into a machine with a floppy
 - dd if=/dev/fd0 of=floppy.img 
     (not sure if you need to give a size there, if so append count=1440000 I 
think)
 - you should end up with a 1.4MB file floppy.img
 - mkisofs -b floppy.img -o cdrom.iso
 - creates cdrom.iso which you can burn in your favourite way

The result definitely works okay since I reused my DOS booting CDR earlier 
today to update the BIOS on this machine.
